KSB Sits Out of the Czech “Law Firm of the Year” Awards

In response to epravo.cz’s announcement of the results of its Law Firm of the Year competition, we would like to point out that KSB has refrained from taking part in the competition for the last six years and this year is no different.

After due consideration, we first decided not to take part in the competition in 2015. The main reason was that some aspects of the competition seemed unintelligible. We made this decision even though we believe that offering in the Czech Republic a certain equivalent of long-established foreign awards is a good idea, and also despite the fact that we have been successful in some categories.

As the reasons for our lack of participation have not changed over the years, we have refrained from participating in this year’s competition as well.
